    Help winning a van

    Am I being unreasonable?

    Cheers Jenx. Yesterday afternoon I received an email from Andrew Greensted the MD of Record who has investigated my complaint personally. It's great that he took the time to personally apologise and identify the failures of his customer service team on this occasion. From what he said, I am...
